Moon

Moon is the last zombie map for Call of Duty Black Ops. It takes place at Area 51 (Groom Lake) and allows you to teleport to a base on the moon. Actually, most of the map is on the base.

The start of the game has you at Hangar 18 in Groom Lake. There will be a Pack-A-Punch machine and either a Jugger-Nog or Speed Cola machine. The machines switch back and forth. This is a pre-round type thing. Zombies will come from the sides and up through the mud. They will die from one knife hit or a few rounds of your M1911. If you have the skill and know how, you can chain the zombies together and get enough points for Jugger-Nog. Hell Hounds can also be found in this area, but only this area. The Perk-A-Colas are right next to a teleporter pad. You need to get to the teleporter pad to make it to the moon base and start the rounds of zombies.

While on the moon, you must put on a special suit and helmet, or you will die. The suit is called the P.E.S. You can take off the helmet when you restore the power to certain areas of the base. Like usual, the power is off once you reach the base. There will be no gravity or air. Find the power room to restore gravity and air to select areas of the moon base. You can tell if there's air by jumping. If it takes awhile to jump, there is no air or gravity.

Along with these enemies is a new challenge. After you turn on the power, three Excavators will try to breech the base. The Excavators are giant machines that saw into the base. If you get close to the Excavator, you will be downed in two quick hits with Jugger-Nog. It's pretty tough to shut them all down. You must get a Hacker device( which is found on one of the desks between the Double Tap Rootbeer and the Deadshot Daiquiri) and hack one of the three terminals at the starting room near the Quick Revive. When you pick it up, you will leave your helmet behind. This prevents you from going outside of the Moon Base. You must either teleport back to Area 51 and back to the moon base, get caught by Astronaut Zombies, or use a Gersch Device and enter the black hole. You can also hack various other things around the map such as the Mystery Box, Doors, Barriers, and the gate around the Pack-A-Punch machine.

Another quick notable feature can be found around the base, most common in the dome. There are yellow square shaped pads that will launch you in the air if you stand on them. The ones in the dome will launch you to other yellow pads. The silver pads will cushion your fall. If you hit the floor without Jugger-Nog or PhD Flopper, you can get injured or downed just by falling from up high.

Maps

Enemies

You may notice a new enemy right off the bat. Astronaut Zombies can be found on the base with names over their heads. Do not get close to them or they will hold on to you, attack you, steal your first Perk, and teleport you. They usually send you somewhere near the start of the moon base. If they do grab hold of you, you can still attack them. Once you kill them, they will blow up and blast you back with a shock wave. The shock wave may kill zombies near by. They have a lot more health than the average starter zombie, so don't hold back.

nova 6 Crawlers return on Moon. This time, you do not need to turn on the power for them to come. Instead, they will appear after you open the door to Double Tap Rootbeer Some Creepy Crawlers have the ability to teleport across the room like a bullet. This makes it much difficult to keep your distance when they blow up. The gas they shoot off will not harm you if you are wearing your P.E.S.

Perk-A-Colas

You'll notice a Jugger-Nog or Speed Cola machine at the start of the match. They will change back and forth each time you teleport back to Area 51.
